ByteNight Photography Fund Raising – Day 2 –

Rob| August 7, 2017

After the success of Day 1, we were all looking forward to a second day of taking new profile pictures for our colleagues here at Sage; and it didn’t disappoint. We didn’t have our ‘enforcer’ Andy Thompson with us this time as he chose to take a holiday – In reality, I just think he didn’t want more pictures taken of him and shared on the Intranet. Luckily, we had Dan Griffin on hand to fill in and a decent job he did too:

As is tradition now, here is Dan helping us with the test shots before our booked in customers arrive. Dan is also a keen photographer; taking some images as the day went on and learning from the more experienced photographers.

Dan captured the following shot of Paul Vincent and I running through the list of colleagues we’d be photographing and planning the morning out.

We managed to get around 30 profile pictures taken throughout the morning with Stuart Kindness and I taking the pictures supported by Paul and Dan, you can see Stuart Sharing some of the images he’s taken with one of our colleagues. We tried to work with each person to take a few different shots and help them chose the best one to be edited.

Stuart has the benefit of being taller than I am; some of our colleagues here at Sage towered above me, so I did have to improvise to get a picture from a level playing field 🙂

As you can see, Stuart didn’t have the same issues, able to comfortably photograph most people without any issues

Unfortunately, we didn’t get pictures taken of everyone that wanted one due to holidays, travel arrangements and time. To try and make sure we didn’t let anyone down, we booked one last session to clear our waiting list.

You can see some of examples of the profile pictures people received below:
